Therefore, Tian Dongyuan turned his head and looked in the direction where the dart might be shot.

It's a pity that I only saw a mess.

"Here, who was standing before?"

Tian Dongyuan estimated the distance, then strode over, and then stood in one place, looking at everyone coldly and asked.

"This ...... I don't know! ”

"yes, I didn't pay attention at all."

Hearing this gossip and no useful news, Tian Dongyuan's face became even colder.

"This place should be ...... It should be the maid in Lord Futai's house. ”

Ning Laosi swallowed his saliva, and after thinking about it carefully, he whispered to Tian Dongyuan.

When Tian Dongyuan heard what Ning Laosi said, he immediately pointed at him and asked him to stand up.

"Is that maid here?"

Hearing Tian Dongyuan's question, the maids who were holding calligraphy and paintings in the banquet suddenly trembled and cried softly.

Seeing this, Ning Laosi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"My lord, these maids are all dressed similarly, and I didn't pay attention to them at the time, so I really can't recognize them."

When Tian Dongyuan heard his words, he squinted his eyes.

"The assassination of Lord Futai is bound to cause His Majesty's wrath.

If you don't get the news, then you will be unlucky, and you will be imprisoned together as fellow Assassins. ”

When the big guy heard Tian Dongyuan's words, he immediately collapsed to the ground and shouted grievances.

It's just that Tian Dongyuan was willing to listen, and waved his hand directly, asking people to escort everyone down.

"Lord Tian, there is a maid who replied, saying that among them, there is one less person."

The subordinate approached and replied softly.

Tian Dongyuan couldn't help but have a dark face, he didn't come slowly, he didn't expect that the assassin's movements were so fast, and he left like this?

Seeing that Lord Tian's face was ugly, his subordinates asked with a hint of hesitation.

"Then these people, do they still have to go to prison?"

"Hmph, lock it up first.

Who knows, among them, there are any accomplices? ”

Hearing Lord Tian say this, his subordinates had a slight toothache.

After all, these people are all rich people from Nanyue Province.

From time to time, he was invited by Chen Futai to spend money to buy his calligraphy and paintings, how could he be an accomplice of the Assassins?

However, Master Tian said so, so he naturally would not refute it.

He turned his head and waved his hand at the men who were holding Ning Laosi and them.

Ning Laosi's face turned pale, this is really a disaster.

Chen Futai and Master Mao were killed, and they were actually very happy in their hearts.

It's just that after the joy, there is still some panic.

After all, no one knows if there will be another corrupt official who is even more ruthless than Chen Futai after leaving Chen Futai.

Qing Niang jumped and ran quickly in the night, and there were officers and soldiers holding torches behind her to search around.

Soon, Qing Niang turned over and entered Mrs. Ning's room.

Before he could speak, he heard Mrs. Ning say, "Don't light the lamp, change your clothes first!" ”

Just now, Ning Peng Peng came in from the window when Qing Niang turned over and saw her figure.

She is very familiar with Qing Niang's figure, so she says this.

When Qing Niang heard the old lady say this, she didn't say a word, so she took off the night clothes on her body, turned it over and put it back on.

Before Ning Pengpeng could ask her if she had changed it, she heard a knock on the door!

"Get up, round the room!"

Ning Pengpeng first glanced at the window, and Qing Niang quickly went over and closed the window tightly.

The room suddenly darkened, and Ning Pengpeng replied in a dumb voice.

"Who? I've already slept! ”

When the person who knocked on the door outside heard this, he knocked more and more violently, and his voice was full of color.

"If you don't open the door yet, if you don't open the door again, labor and management will collide!"

As these words fell, the room suddenly lit up.

Then, Qing Niang went to open the door with an oil lamp.

The door of this room was about to open, and Qing Niang was pushed open by the people who rushed in from outside, and searched the room with sharp eyes.

But in the room, there was only an old woman sitting on the bed, and a woman holding an oil lamp in one hand, with a frightened face, wearing a brown coat, and the other hand, clinging tightly to both sides of the dress.

Looking at their eyes, it was as if they were looking at a flower thief.

Although this woman still has a bit of beauty, the old woman sitting on the bed is half of the person who has been cut into the ground, and she is blind, so she will be this flower thief, right?

However, the business that Lord Tian ordered down was important.

I searched the room inside and out, and confirmed that there was no one else, and the person who knocked on the door with a fierce face just now waved his hand and asked the others to search the other rooms first.

But he stayed, looking back and forth before the old woman and the young woman.

"Didn't the shopkeeper below say that this room is occupied by one person?

Why do you two live in the same room? ”

Qing Niang first shrunk her neck and replied softly.

"Official, my old lady has been coughing up phlegm at night for the past few days and can't sleep well, so I let the slave and maid keep vigil here."

After speaking, he glanced towards the side of the bed, and quickly lowered his head.

The man followed Qing Niang's eyes and glanced at Ning Pengpeng's bedside, only to see that there was indeed a small table at the end of the bed.

】

Presumably this woman, at the vigil, sat on a low table, and then lay on the edge of the bed to sleep.

"Hmph."

The official snorted coldly to confirm that there was nothing wrong, and then turned around and went out.

Waiting for Qing Niang to close the door, Ning Peng Peng let out a slight long breath this time.

"You're ......!"

Before Ning Pengpeng could speak, she saw Qing Niang raise her finger and put it to her mouth to make a shushing motion.

Ning Pengpeng immediately knew that he was afraid that the group of people who searched before should not have gone far.

Immediately closed his mouth tightly and said no more.

The officers and soldiers who searched the inn had been searching for a long time, and the shopkeeper stuffed a lot of silver into the hands of the leader, and the leader waved his hand and led the people away.

The noise outside the door gradually quieted down, and Qing Niang, who had originally tensed her body, finally relaxed.

She walked to the middle of the room and placed the lamp oil in her hand on the table.

Then the man walked to the old lady's bedside, sat down, and whispered in the old lady's ear.

"Something happened to the Futai Mansion, and someone killed Chen Tai and Master Mao before me."

Originally, Ning Pengpeng thought it was Qing Niang's hand, but she didn't expect that there were people in this Nanyue Mansion who wanted to kill Chen Futai and Master Mao?

Suddenly, Ning Peng grabbed Qing Niang's wrist, breathing a little short.

"What about the fourth? The fourth child went to the banquet at night, did he go out of Futai Mansion? ”

thought that he was going to rush to the Futai Mansion, and then he bumped into the scene where Chen Futai and Master Mao were killed.

So, without looking closely at the people at the banquet, she turned around and ran.

If I hadn't run fast, I'd have been caught red-handed as an assassin!
